MAGICKA FREE WEEKEND ON STEAM

--

This game is hilarious, but only as multiplayer!

TotalBiscuit did a famously hilarious Let's Play of it with the dudes at Yogscast, if you are unfamiliar with the game.

I have an Asus G5 Panzer tank with 8 gigs of ram and a mean graphics card albeit 2 years old ..... and Magicka does not look like it needs a futuristic space computer

Haha, I remember there were a lot of problems when it first came out. I'd look around their forums.

Yeah my buddy had some .NET issue and never got the game to run either. On that note I do own the game and would be happy to get in on some Magicka this weekend!

Ah! The magic that seems to have finally made a difference was manually setting the system to the graphics driver. (My system has Optimus tech. It works well, when it works, but a lot of programs are missing from its application list.

On my machine: NVIDIA Control Panel, "Manage 3D settings" from the treeview on the left, and then go to the "Program Settings" tab and click "Add" to get an 'open file' box. Locate Magicka in your file directory structure, and then change the preferred graphics processor in the dropdown on the NVIDIA control panel. Then don't forget to click "Apply"! It doesn't auto-save.


Found that fix when I googled you issue... sounds like you might have to force it to use the correct GPU. You also probably could fix it by disabling you on board GPU in the bios on computer boot.

I was thinking more like Sunday, after the in-houses. I figure Sat will be an intense day and Sunday should be pretty laid back considering we all Dotered for 5 hours the day before.

Bro, my entire next week is going to be masturbation.

EDIT: I agree with Alverez's edit.
